* Trinity finds that probing a hole which tmpfs is punching can
* prevent the hole-punch from ever completing: which in turn
* locks writers out with its hold on i_mutex. So refrain from
* faulting pages into the hole while it's being punched. Although
* shmem_truncate_range() does remove the additions, it may be unable to
* keep up, as each new page needs its own unmap_mapping_range() call,
* and the i_mmap tree grows ever slower to scan if new vmas are added.
*
* It does not matter if we sometimes reach this check just before the
* hole-punch begins, so that one fault then races with the punch:
* we just need to make racing faults a rare case.
*
* The implementation below would be much simpler if we just used a
* standard mutex or completion: but we cannot take i_mutex in fault,
* and bloating every shmem inode for this unlikely case would be sad.
* faulting pages into the hole while it's being punched, and
* wait on i_mutex to be released if vmf->flags permits.
